‘Gilmore Girls’ Creators Making Time for Another Netflix Revival

The prospect of more Gilmore Girls got dimmer with creator Amy Sherman-Palladino signing onto new Amazon series, but some contractual fine print brings good news. A deliberate loophole could finally answer Rory’s big mystery with another season in the near future.

That said, the piece notes that said clause is only activated if the two move forward on a story idea and unravel the Gordian knot of putting that busy cast back together, so we wouldn’t put on a pot of coffee just yet. Back in June, star Lauren Graham was less-than-optimistic about a second revival, but at least open to a Christmas-themed return:

Just as an experience, it was kind of perfect. I always said, while we were doing it, that I couldn’t see more episodes in that form. Five years from now do you have ‘A Very Gilmore Christmas?’ Maybe, but there’s no reason anymore except enjoyment. And, actually, I think there’s far more risk to continue — you run the risk of disappointing people.
